The oscillation can be caused by varying melt pressure, varying output tension, and insufficient cooling.

Oval is typically due to extruding horizontally over a guide. With ABS, it is <0.05mm in diameter difference. PP may be mroe sensitive, depending particularly on temperature. Reorienting to a vertical setup may help.

The filament comes out first very wide (3mm) then goes thin (< 1 mm), then thick then thin and oscillates back and forth. 

The filament is not round but oval shaped.

Anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks,

GWFAMI
